The Book of Izumi Samurai
The Book of Izumi Samurai If you cannot see the Army Card graphic, check Hasbro's Unit Page for stats and special powers, plus "character biography" and other non-game unit info. Rise of the Valkyrie - Master Set http://www.heroscapers.com/oldgaller...07/samurai.jpg Character Bio: Inscrutable, unpredictable and dangerous: there are no better words to describe the Izumi Samurai warriors. This precision-trained squad puts honor and ethics above all virtues; yet they are highly secretive, and will shift their allegiance if the cause inspires them. Any warrior brave enough to attack an Izumi Samurai must plan carefully and make no mistakes. The Izumi are artful masters of the riposte: the lightning-quick, deadly-accurate counterstrike.

Two things to remember about Counter Strike:
- Trigered only by Normal attacks. - Works only against adjacent attakers (unless otherwise stated on their card). Aranas |
Probably the best 60 points in the game.
|
When defending with a unit that has counterstrike, such as the Izumi, do you still get to roll defense if the attacker doesn't roll any skulls?

This is not a squad we generally pick in our games. We usually pick 2 squads of DeathReavers as blockers.

Just what I'd expect an atheist to pick!
Thanks for the answers guys, thats how I was playing it. I just hadn't seen anything that specifically said it was so. |
Izumi, the original masters of the counterstrike. 8).

Deathreavers and Izumi Samurai have similar purposes, but there are differences. If someone attacks your Deathreavers, they have to deal with scatter. If someone attacks your samurai, they have to deal with counterstrike. Sometimes you'll need one more than the other, plus samurai are way cooler.

I have a question on the counterstrike ability.
What if your attacking opponent rolls shields and/or blanks, and you roll 3 (for example) shields? Does that mean your opponent gets 3 damage? |
